Alfred R. Haemmerle was a Russian citizen. His ancestors, Dutch-Alsatians by origin were driven out of France during the French Revolution and settled on the shores of the Black Sea. His great-grandfather, Jean-Charles Haemmerle, was the pioneer builder of the port and City of Odessa. Alfred's father, Jean Haemmerle (1824-1894), a wealthy exporter of grain and wool built the Port in Berdiansk, South Russia and became the Lord Mayor of the City. Alfred R. Haemmerle was born in 1875 in Berdiansk, graduated with B.Sc.from the Russian college, and was also educated in France and Germany. He started his career in Russian commercial banks and five years later he opened his own import-export business. He accumulated land and was the Director of the largest Farm Implement Plant in Russia.In 1907 Alfred was one of the organizers of the Central Bank of Mutual Credit Societies in St. Petersburg, and from 1909 to 1916 he acted as assistant manager. He became president of the Credit Bank in Habarofsk, Eastern Siberia, and represented Eastern Siberia in the Standing Committee of the Council of Russian Trade, Exchanges and Agriculture. The largest part of his capital was made as a broker in precious metals. The Russian Revolution of 1917 forced him to leave the country with his wife Amy (1887-1957) and son Anatole (1908-1986). After travelling through Vladivostok and Tokyo he finally settled in Montreal in 1920. He became Canadian citizen in 1928. Throughout the Second World War he served the Postal Censorship Board in Ottawa using his language skills. Anatole was briefly at McGill, where he helped to establish the McGill Light Aeroplane Club in 1926. After serving the Army in the war he moved to Massachusetts, where he was employed in insurance.

The Hall family was a Montreal and Quebec City-based family of merchants, tradespeople, and farmers. William Hall (1738-1795) was born in England and migrated to Andover, Massachusetts with his mother, Sarah Barker (unknown-approximately 1803) around 1755, upon the request of his uncle, Joseph Gibson. On 16 May 1761, William Hall married Christina Barbara Juncken (1739-1817), the daughter of Christina Dorothea Juncken and Johann Juncken, German immigrants who had arrived in Philadelphia in 1753. After marrying, they moved to Andover and had 7 sons together: Joseph Hall (??-1834), David Hall (1764-1796), William Hall (1768-1854), John Hall (1771-1822), Henry Hall (1772-1804), Jacob Hall (1777-approx. 1819), and Benjamin Hall (1779-1863).

William Hall (1767-1854) and his brother Henry moved to Quebec City in approximately 1791 to open a hat making shop with their uncle, Henry Juncken (died approx. 1802). Soon after, the other members of the family began moving to Montreal - Benjamin arriving in approximately 1793, Joseph and Jacob in 1797, John by 1799, and Christina Barbara in 1804. The brothers worked, at various times, as farmers, tanners, hat makers, bakers, and merchants. Benjamin and John married sisters, Charlotte and Harriet Morrison (1784-1871), the daughters of wealthy Montreal businessman James Morrison and Suzanne Lepallieur.

Family members of the next generation represented in the Hall family fonds include Amelia Hall (daughter of Joseph Hall), Charlotte (1810-1886) and Harriet Ann Hall (1813-1895, daughters of John Hall), and Archibald Hall (1812-1868, son of Jacob Hall). Edward Vennor (1807-1874), who married Harriet Ann Hall in 1834, is also represented in the fonds, as is their daughter, Charlotte Ann Vennor Linsday (1839-1912).

Born in Europe, Aaron Hart (ca 1724-1800) emigrated to America and in 1760 followed the British army into Canada. A merchant who furnished supplies to the commissariat of the British army, Hart settled in Trois-Rivières where he engaged in various business activities including the fur trade. He also acquired large tracts of land including the seigneuries of Sainte-Marguerite and Becancour. In 1768 he married Dorothy Judah; they had four sons, Moses, Ezekiel, Benjamin and Alexander, and four daughters. Ezekiel (d.1843), like his father, was a merchant in Trois-Rivières. In 1807 he was elected as the representative for Trois-Rivières in the Legislative Assembly of Lower Canada but could not sit as a member because he could not take the customary oath "on the true faith of a Christian". In 1808 he was re-elected but again was unable to sit for the same reasons. Although nominated in 1809, he withdrew his candidature during the electoral campaign. His son, Adolphus M. Hart (1814-1879) became a prominent lawyer in Montréal.

John Stewart Henry (M.D.,C.M., McGill, 1925) was born in Salisbury, New Brunswick. In order to finance postdoctoral studies, he worked during the summer of 1927 at Murray Bay; among the summer visitors he treated were former U.S. President William Taft and a Boston physician, Vincent Bowditch. In 1925 he married Leila Murdoch, M.D. Her mother, Lysbeth Dawson Murdoch (1856-1946) a native of Macduff, Scotland, had a long career in teacher training in Great Britain. As a young woman she had wished to be a doctor, but could not obtain admission to any medical school (including McGill, although Principal Dawson was her cousin) on the grounds of her sex. Barbara Mitchell (1777-1856) came from Forgue, Scotland to settle near her cousin James Dawson (father of Principal Dawson) in 1814. She remained only a short time before returning to Scotland.

The family of Mr. and Mrs. P. Hershorn lived on Belvedere Road, Westmount, Quebec, in 1983.

H. Wyatt Johnston was born in Montréal in 1887, the son of Wyatt Galt Johnston (M.D.,C.M., McGill, 1884) and his wife Elizabeth Turnor. After serving in the World War I, he earned a B.Sc. from McGill in 1921. Until the outbreak of World War II he directed the pulp and paper division of Forest Products Laboratories. He served with the Armoured Corps in the War, and in 1945 joined Southerland Refiners Co.

Born in Montreal in 1878, William Willoughby Francis was named after his mother's cousin, Sir William Osler. As Osler's namesake, and also his godson, Francis decided to pursue a medical degree and graduated in 1902 from Johns Hopkins University. After interning at the Royal Victoria Hospital and spending time in Europe to pursue post-graduate studies, Francis started his own practice in Montreal in 1906. He was also appointed Demonstrator in Pathology at McGill University under the direction of Dr. Maude Abbott. For some time, Francis served as Secretary-Treasurer and Assistant Editor of the Canadian Medical Association Journal. His career was briefly interrupted when he fell ill with pulmonary tuberculosis, and he was admitted to St. Agathe Sanatorium where he regained his health in 1911. During World War One, Francis went overseas with No.3 Canadian General Hospital. After the war, Francis remained in Europe and took a position in Geneva as Assistant Editor – eventually Editor – of the International Journal of Public Health. Upon the death Sir William Osler in 1919, Francis relocated to Oxford where he began cataloguing Osler's extensive collection of books that had been bequeathed to McGill University. Francis was the principal editor of the Bibliotheca Osleriana with the help of co-editors Archibald Malloch and Reginald Hill. The Osler Library of the History of Medicine opened its doors at McGill University in 1929 and Francis served as the library's dedicated librarian until his death in 1959.

In 1921, W. W. Francis married Hilda Colley and they had one daughter who was born in Oxford, Marian Francis Kelen (1922-2014). The family spent nearly seven years living in England while Francis catalogued Osler's bequest. Upon completion of the work, the family returned to Montreal with eighty-six large packing cases of books. Marian Francis pursued a medical degree and graduated from McGill in 1945 with an M.D.C.M. It was at McGill where she met her husband, and fellow medical student, Andrew Kelen. Upon graduation, Andrew, who was part of the ROTC (Regular Officers' Training Corps), was stationed in London and elsewhere in western Europe with the Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps until the end of the Second World War (1944-1945). After Andrew was discharged from the RCAMC and returned home, Marian and Andrew were married (1946) and pursued residencies at the Montreal General Hospital, Royal Victoria Hospital, and the former Montreal Homeopathic Hospital (later Queen Elizabeth Hospital of Montreal) before practicing medicine at the Ormstown Medical Centre in southern Quebec. Marian and Andrew Kelen had five children together: Michael (born 1948), Sari, Steve, Susan, and Wendy. Marian Kelen stopped practicing medicine for 18 years while raising the growing family.

The family of Mr. and Mrs. P.F. Kerrigan had a home in Knowlton, Quebec, in 1972-1976.
